People are importing their lame tweets to Bluesky

The Blueskay and X, formerly known as Twitter applications are seen in this illustration photo taken in Warsaw, Poland on 18 November, 2024.

No, babe, your posts on X are so funny! You should totally post whatever you tweeted four years ago on a new platform in 2024. Everyone is going to love that!

A post from an unofficial “Bluesky Support” account says otherwise: “Stop importing your old tweets! they sucked the first time too!”

Some Bluesky users are reading a lot into the mere idea of importing old tweets to a new platform, saying it’s a sign of narcissism or implying that people who choose to import their old tweets are living in fear of the unknown. While we all must take a deep breath and recognize that nothing is that deep, it does seem to be a trend.

One Bluesky user posted, “Stop importing your old tweets from 2015. No one needs to read your jokes about Taken 3, and I am trying to post! “

“In theory i support people importing their old tweets but it should only allow you to import the absolute bangers. i want that good shit ONLY,” one user posted, reasonably.

“Instead of importing my old tweets, i will be posting your old bangers as though they are my own,” another user joked.

If you decide to make moves against the haters, you can import all of your old tweets — with the exception of retweets, replies, and reposts — by using the Porto Chrome extension.
